Dr. Devine, Representative of National I Red Cross Relief Works in San i Francisco, Praises Pluck of i Suffereis. SAN" FRANCISCO. April 23,-Dr. Ed ward Devine, of New York, representa tive of the National Red Cross relief work, in San Francisco, having had four lay t ?:jrii'iice with conditions prevail ing hero, at the rer.i.c' o; the Associat ed Pies- made the following statement onering his obscrvalcns Admires Courageous Spirit. 'i wi-h to expre-s my admiration for the pluck and ronMge, the enthusiasm and capacity of hard work manifested by tlie people cf San Francisco under the most trying conditions. "When I 'eft Mv York on Thursday, the 10th, we knew only that there had been a tenons disaster, but in fact more than hi'f of the d'sa-ter oceured after t skirted. All ?its of rumors reached us en route a to loss of life, shooting panic and death. We heard little or nothing of the efficient organization of citizens appointed by the mayor, com prising tne best men in the community, acting in conpun?tion with General Fun ston and the United States army. We knew that there was 1 ced for relief As soon a-? the character of the local organization was understood President Roosevelt and Secretary Tuft recogniz ed that it "as the proper channel throu gh which to distribute these large gifts. I had left New York through the agen cy of a charitable organization. While on tlie way I was requested by Secre tary Taft. president of the National Red Cross, to act as the representative of the Red Cross in San Francisco. On arrival there I placed myself in com munication with Circuit Judge Morrow, president of the California lied Cros. fieneral Greely, Governor Pardee and Mayor Schmitz. I came simply as a messenger of good will and desire to lend a helping hand, not to criticise. The committee under the chairman-hip of Mr. Phelan comprises twenty of the be-t citizens of the commercial unity and has entire charge of the financial end of the work of relief. Direction has been made to all to send all funds to the order of Mr. Phelan. Relief Work Systematized. "The next important step was to ar range for the systematic reception and distribution of supplies. Fortunately the splendid organization of the United States army is eminently fitted to cope with this difficulty. Under the system now in force under the quartermasters the army receives, unloads and trans ports all tlie supplies that are consigned for the relief of the sufferers. Officers in charge of the commissary depart ment attend to the work of di-tribution to the various relief stations scattered through the city. At the-e relief ta tions a presen the distribuinn to citi zens i, made by volunteer relief com mittees. As fast as may the manage ment of these relief stations will be taken over bv the military in order that the public spirited citizens will have been doing volunteer work in this di rection may be enabled to resume their regular work or to take up such new means of livlihood as may be chosen. "These measures have been telegraph ed from time to time to Secretary of War, Taft, and yesterday I received from him a message approving of the steps taken and informing me of the gratification with which the President received the news that harmony prevails in the work. "The Red Cross is replying to all requests sent us by committees and citizens in other parts of the country as to the form contributions should take We have met such request as we have to report that wo have abundant -up-ply of perslmble food on hand mid it will be much more to the hcncHt and purpoe if all future contributions simile be in cash. Want Cash Contribution!. "Mr. Allan Pollock and my-elf have been appointed purchasing agents under the general direction of the tl nance coin mittee. While a large amount of money is to I- available the needs of Sun Francisco are very great and I would not say 11 word that would seal the spring- of charily or in any way check the splendid work that is Wing done by the people of the- east, north, and -outh and west. Kven; precaution has been taken to protect these funds from wa-le. The limine1 committee has es tablished an accounting -y-tem in the hands of expert and each dollar will be accounted for and o far as hu man endeavor can pivvail, it will lie wi-ely spent. "All relief measures must le subor dinated to the much more important consideration of enabling the people to get Imck to work and support them selves. Til tbisi eml, a,indoynienlt bureaus have been organized and the services of professor Carl C. Plehn, for merly superintendent of the een-us of the Piyiippinv islands and l'rov4--or West ley V. Mitchell. both of whom are connected with the department of eco nomics at the California -tnte univer sity, have been enlUted to organize a general restriction bureau to aid in find ing employment for the unemployed and to furnish general statistical in formation of the progre-s of work of relief, and while I am on the subject 1 wish to say a word as to assistance so willingly given us by the University of California. It has placed its print ing plant and clerical force at our dis posal and this has greatly aided us in getting our oflice foix-e into shape. Work Conducted Carefully. "It is thoroughly realized that work of relieveing the distressed due to this great catastrophe should be conducted along careful and scientific lines. This is the great aim of the National Roil Cross and we are eiili-ting coopeiwtion of such experts as he can impress into service in this undertaking. Weiuc lie ing heartily seconded, not only by the leading citizens, of San Francisco, but by the community as a whole. The sub committees apjMiinted by the mayor are completely in accord with this idea. "It is hoped that no opportunity to gather important and u-eful knowledge, which would be of incalculable service to other commercial unities in times of such di-tress, will lie overlooked. That this lie so, as thorough and as com plete records of what has lieen done will be kept and the history of this great disaster add not a little to our knowledge 0f the science of relief." To those who do not know, it may 1 stated that Dr. Divine is editor of Charities and the commons, president of the National Conference of Charities and corrections, general secretary of the charity organization society of New Yoiflv and Schiff pn4'v.r of social economy in the Columbia Univer-ity. His chief assistant here i- Earnest P. Rickncll. superintendent of the associat ed charities of Chicago, These two gentk-ment are of the most part of the time to be found in the field. The of fice woife is under the director of Dr. E. C. Moors, president of the state board of charities and corrections and dean of a Summer school of the University of California. The cheerfulness, cour tesy and readiness of all these gentle men have won them golden opinions in the minds of the stricken people of San Francisco. 00000000000000000 0 PERSONAL MENTION. 0 00000000000000000 Mrs. W.
